Hey guys, I want to build a budget PC less than $400 AUS. This is what I've picked so far from Umart. Is this good?



For Power Supply Unit, I'll use my old 500w SilverStone or use the one that came with my old case (Thermaltake Soprano) ThermalTake 430w. And for graphics card I'll just use my old ATi x1800 xl.


Thanks!

yeah that will be fine

when motherboard product description says "Supports high performance Dual Channel DDR2 800 memory" does that mean it supports up to DDR2 800? So I can get 667mhz etc?

yes

Which CPU should I go with?

1. AMD Athlon™ 64 4200+AM2 Processor Retail Dual Core AM2
2. AMD Athlon? 64 4600+AM2 Processor Retail Dual Core AM2
3. AMD Athlon 64 4800+AM2 Processor Retail Dual Core AM2

well the 4800+ is the best of the 3 can you stretch to the 5000 black edition? if they do em

Nope, there's no 5000 black edition. I'll just go with 4800+ I guess

hmm... do you think I'll have any trouble fitting in the graphics card to the new MB? http://c1.neweggimages.com/NeweggIma...131-249-05.jpg

the graphic card right now go all the way past the battery thing on my current MB (A8R-MVP -- http://www.gamepc.com/images/labs/re...vp-boardLG.jpg)

as long as its pci e you will be fine nothing shoudl be in the way fit the ram first then the ide cable then the gfx last
